The National Cancer Institute (NCI) has named Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City as a Center for Quantitative Imaging Excellence for its research in cancer screening, treatment and follow-up care, specifically with modalities such as mammography, PET, CT and MRI.
Baseline whole-body tumor burden provided a prognostic measurement in patients with Stage IV nonsurgical non-small-cell lung cancer with low interobserver variability, according to a study published in the January 2012 issue of Academic Radiology.
CHICAGO--Image interpretation will need to include quantitative analysis in the future, according to a session on Nov. 30 at the 97th Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).
This refresher course assesses the challenges and opportunities of quantitative imaging and considers how informatics can enable and improve quantitative imaging. It also explores radiogenomics and introduces the National Cancer Institute’s Quantitative Imaging Network and the potential role of imaging as a biomarker.
RSNA hosts its 97th Scientific Assembly & Annual Meeting, Nov. 27 to Dec.2, in Chicago. The society expects 60,000 attendees and has organized 2,400 presentations and posters and 1,800 exhibits and demonstrations.
Apparent diffusion coefficient histograms derived from quantitative diffusion-weighted MRI helped predict chemotherapy response in patients with metastatic ovarian or primary peritoneal cancer, according to a study published in this month's issue of Radiology.
Cleveland Clinic spinoff ImageIQ has partnered with its former parent organization, along with the National Center for Regenerative Medicine and the Cleveland Cord Blood Center, to develop software for assessing umbilical cord blood for the potential of its stem cells.
Researchers have leveraged quantitative CT to identify two types of structural changes in the lungs of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) associated with frequent exacerbations, according to a study published online July 25 in Radiology. The findings may help identify patients for targeted research and therapy development for individual phenotypes.
Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo, N.Y., has been named a Center of Quantitative Imaging Excellence by the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
After performing sequential CT scans within 15 minutes, interpretations by three radiologists revealed that one-third of lung tumor measurements varied by more than 2 mm, while 3 percent of tumors qualified as having progressed within the 15-minute interval, illuminating clinically important inaccuracies in measuring tumor size and progression on CT, opined the authors of a study published online July 5 in the
Journal of Clinical Oncology.
WASHINGTON, D.C.—Although quantitative imaging is radiology’s new frontier, it is not actively used now because it’s complicated. Informatics can help radiology move forward with quantitative imaging, said Daniel L. Rubin, MD, assistant professor of radiology Stanford University School of Medicine in Stanford, Calif., last week during the annual meeting of the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM).
WASHINGTON, D.C.—Quantitative imaging offers a grand opportunity for radiology. However, key prerequisites including systems to support development and integration into clinical workflow are required, according to the Quantitative Imaging session June 4 at the annual meeting of the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM).
WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM) kicked off its annual meeting with a clear message on June 2: Radiology needs reform, and informatics can help.
